Boy, we need Mazara in the lineup.

To be fair, if we had an actual second baseman in the game, in the 1st, its probably the solo HR to Kepler, and the inning is over. Then, Gio's start is not nearly as bad. All in the name of an extra year of control...

Um....please feel free to show me all of the second basemen in the league currently, who possess a 3.3% K rate. I can't fathom why folks re ready to trade away a guy who basically puts every ball in play, on a team full of strikeout guys...

Can we stop trying to figure out a way to trade Madrigal please? Thanks. No one else, not named Luis Robert, deserves a shot in a Chicago more, and his skillset isn’t easy to find in today’s baseball climate.

This is basically a move, that should be an afterthought. But I guess, due to the lack of pitching news, along with seeing other teams making the moves necessary, it brings on interesting discussion. I'm fine with Mazara, as I think he still has some upside, and is still young enough to not feel like it was a throwaway move, done just to fill a roster spot. Any other guy (Joc via trade, Castellanos or Ozuna) would have cost a HELLUVA lot more, and none of those 3 guys are true organization keepers (IMO).

OK...who should the Sox have gotten, to play RF, with consideration to cost vs performance? It isn't like this move is locking the organization up for years to come, with an average to below average player.

SoxTalk...always entertaining...after ANY trade/signing... Basically, there is one spot in the OF for the foreseeable future, I feel pretty sure that Steele Walker wasn't going to be the guy manning that spot. I don't mind the move, but we still need pitching...

I have it on very good authority (from myself), that the organization has confirmed the interest of a return for Jim Parque.

So.......please assure me we aren't going to let Herrera actually get to the 110 games over 2019 and 2020...this is game 43 for him...

Who would you have put in? There weren't exactly a plethora of arms left.

I love to pile on to Ricky, but...Herrera being ass isn't his fault.

Kelvin Herrera....woof.

Timmy with 9 errors now in 32 games.

Can't really be mad at TA there, maybe talk to the 1-4 in the order, who combined to go 1-20 with 2 Ks, and 8 LOB.

Carson Fulmer....bad at baseball.

Sox killer Castellanos gets his shot...this isn't going to be fun to watch.

Bailed VerHagen out..sheesh.

Unfortunately, the worst part of the order (today) has to get the job done, here. That 0-12 from the 1-3 guys needs to change, right here!

Fair enough. Abreu is sucking enough, to account for 2 players worth of garbage.

Abreu and Alonso are absolute anchors on this lineup right now. Yeech.

Abreu is so.....so...bad, right now. K rate is climbing fast.

BOOM!

WTF...we found the offense! McCann!

ELOY!!!

Attaboy, Eloy! Always nice when you don't have to worry about that Snell curve to bottom you out on a swing.
